How To Treat Blisters, Sore And Rash On Belly Button?

I thought I got a spider bite to the right of my belly button because there was a red spot. So I put antibiotic cream and a flexible fabric bandaid. I took off the bandaid to see if it was better and exactly where the bandaid was it was very red, little itchy but pretty sore and little blisters and rash like. What is the best way to treat this?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The area should be cleaned with a mild topical anti septic and a topical antibiotic applied to the area.

Topical antibiotics would be available over the counter.

Oral use of antihistamines may also help eg benadryl, loratidine, allegra, zyrtec.

I hope this helps
